The servants surrounded her, unable to see what was going on inside. All they could hear was the little girl crying loudly.

I turned to see what was going on.

"Hurry up and get out of the way!"

Lan Ling scolded the servant girl in front of me loudly. The servant girl who joined in the fun made way for me.

There was no lack of maidservants and other decent servants by the side of the young mistresses. They were usually very proud of their masters. Upon being scolded by Lan Ling in such a loud voice, most of them had a serious expression on their faces.

Lan Lingyun stood behind me with her back straight, not afraid of the stage at all.

I secretly sighed. I'm afraid that Lan Ling's reputation as being unreasonable is about to be confirmed.

Second Miss Jiang whispered teasingly in my ear. "What a good girl!"

I glanced at her and gently pushed her away. "You're still teasing me?"

Second Miss Jiang chuckled and followed me to take a look.

Second Miss Xu was squatting on the ground and hugging Third Miss Xu. Third Miss's face was red from crying and she was gasping for breath. The tears on her face fell in streams.

I hastily handed over a handkerchief. I tried to soften my voice as I asked, "What's wrong?"

Second Miss Xu did not stand on ceremony. She took the handkerchief and wiped her face for her little sister before explaining with a smile, "It's fine! It's nothing! It's just a little kid's quarrel! "

I squatted down to help Third Miss straighten her clothes, and soon my legs went numb.

The Second Miss didn't move at all as she hugged her little sister.

Under Second Miss Xu's gentle words and warm embrace, Third Miss gradually stopped crying and turned into soft sobbing.

I turned to my mother.

Second Miss Xu was talking about the quarrel of a child. The only people who could be called children here were the Third Miss Xu and the Fifth Miss Xue, right?

Fifth Miss Xue was led by Miss Wen to the side. Her little face was puffed up with anger. Her wet nurse was half-kneeling on the ground, saying something to her.

Miss Wen threw me a wry smile and pointed to Fifth Miss Xue's hand.

Although the flower had fallen to the ground or had been crushed, one could still see that it was originally a very beautiful wreath.

Since Second Miss Xu wanted to settle the matter peacefully, Fifth Miss did not say anything else. There was no need to reveal this matter.

After all, they were in their own yard. They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to figure out what was going on!

I smiled and teased the third lady who was still spasming in her arms. I went up to the fifth lady to comfort her and then prepared to bring the rest of the ladies to my courtyard.

"Lin'er, can you go with cousin?" I smiled and squeezed Fifth Miss's soft little hand.

Fifth Miss nodded. The wet nurse by the side breathed a sigh of relief and quickly took the rotten wreath from her hand.

Just as he pulled the Fifth Miss away, a cold female voice suddenly came from behind.

"Young Miss Yang, are you not prepared to return justice to our Xu Family?"

I turned to see that it was Lady Xu!

How could there be such a foolish person?

A single word from a child's mouth could cover this matter up, but this Lady Xu had raised it to the heights of the Xu and Yang families.

To me, it was indeed that I was unwell, but to the two ladies, it was that I was unwell. What's more, even if it was me, the Xu family just arrived in this city and is unfamiliar with the place, so they still have to rely heavily on the Yang and Wen families.

I looked at Eldest Miss Xu with a smile that was not a smile. "I don't understand what Elder Sister is saying!"

Second Miss Xu's face was ashen. She quickly handed Third Miss Xu to her mother, then stepped forward and grabbed her elder sister.

"Sister Yang, don't blame me, my sister is joking!"

The second miss herself also felt that this excuse was extremely reluctant, and she grumbled at her elder sister.

Eldest Miss Xu was too preoccupied with her own anger to notice her younger sister's hint.

Since they had already explained that it was a joke, I couldn't be bothered to pursue it. I smiled at the Second Miss and prepared to leave with the Fifth Miss.

"You can't leave!"

I've never seen such a lady!

He broke free from his little sister, forcing her to retreat. The peony flower on my head fell to the ground, not caring about that as it aggressively rushed over and tugged on my sleeve.

I didn't even have the time to react before she pulled me back.

Not only was I shocked, but also Miss Wen beside me took a small step back with a pale face.

No matter how scheming she was, she was still a teenage girl.

Lan took a cautious step forward and protected me with half of her body.

Immediately, Second Young Miss Xu and the two well-dressed Xu mothers surrounded him.

Second Miss Xu pursed her lips and glared fiercely at her elder sister.

With a bun in his hair and a small jade pearl at the side of his temple, his mother smiled as she held Lady Xu's hand. "Miss, this is a joke. How is it right for you to pull it like this?"

Eldest Miss Xu glanced at her mother with some fear before slowly withdrawing her hand.

"How can you protect your cousin and bully my sister?" Eldest Miss Xu was only released due to the pressure from her mother. She did not give up on her determination.

I touched the embroidery on my sleeve and said with a gentle smile, "However, children play together. How can there be no friction?"

Second Miss Xu smiled at me gratefully and pulled her sister away.

"What is friction?" Didn't you see my sister cry like that? " Eldest Young Miss Xu once again unceremoniously shook off the Second Young Miss's hand.

The second miss' gaze towards Eldest Miss was like December's ice and snow, without any warmth.

Sneering coldly, the Second Miss took a small step back and stopped standing by her sister's side.

Second Miss must be very unhappy to have such an elder sister, right?

It was this person, with such a dull appearance, that took over the eldest daughter.

"What do you mean, sister?" I smiled and looked her up and down.

I've already given this rash young miss Xu two or three chances, but she doesn't appreciate my kindness at all. In that case, why don't you say it clearly to the gong and the drum?

"What do you think happened?" I pointed to Lanxiang, who was standing by the side with her head lowered.

Lan Xiang obviously winced a little and bravely came over to say something. Her steps were still a bit unsteady.

"In reply to Miss, Second Miss Xu saw the flowers in the servant's basket, so she asked for a few and gave Third Miss a wreath to play with. Miss Cousin saw it and liked it very much. She asked the Third Miss to lend her the wreath, but she was not happy with the third Miss's unwillingness. This servant made up a garland for Miss Biao. When Miss Xu saw it, she wanted to trade the garland in her hands for Miss Biao's. Miss Biao didn't want to, so Miss Xu went over and grabbed it. After that, Miss Xu started to cry. Miss Wen persuaded Miss Biao to give her the garland. After all, Miss Biao had to agree. After handing the garland to Third Miss Xu, Third Miss removed the garland. "

No wonder when I was in the past a field of petals, Second Miss Xu was also secretive, did not want to explain to me the reason.

The Third Young Miss of the Xu Family did not care!

I smiled and nodded, "You can come to my room and work for me from now on."

Lan Xiang was extremely grateful. She knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and retreated to stand beside the maidservants.

Miss Xue was being led by her wet nurse. She timidly hid behind me and grabbed the corner of my shirt.

I turned around and patted her on the head, laughing and praising her.

Fifth Miss wore a shy smile on her face.

Eldest Miss Xu frowned and questioned loudly: "Little sister Yang! Even my third sister is crying, why are you praising your cousin? "

Seriously... Foolish!

I took Fifth Miss's hand and led her to stand in front of Eldest Miss Xu.

I could see the fire burning in Lady Xu's eyes.

"Even though I was born in the cold, and I'm not as knowledgeable as all the other sisters, I've never heard that Qin Kui cleared the charges just because he cried for Yue Fei, or that Yi An Shi just because he said 'I've thought of Xiang Yu up until now, and am unwilling to cross the river east'. It could be seen that when his sister said that the sister of the Xu family had cried, she had taken over the truth. It was an extremely unfounded statement! What's more, when my sister tugged on my sleeve just now, I just treated it as a joke between us sisters, and laughed it off. If I shed a few tears, would elder sister have to pour tea for me and apologize? "

With these words, the only sound in the garden was the clear cry of the birds.

I couldn't help but smile bitterly. At this moment, I don't think I should say all of my thoughts out loud!

It was too late to regret it now.

In a moment, the scene in the garden would reach my mother. Would my mother find anything in my words? No matter what, he had to find a way to conceal himself!

Eldest Miss Xu's face turned red from my words. She clenched the handkerchief in her hands and muttered, "But …" However, she didn't say anything after a long time.

As a person, one must always be firm and gentle, and when one has to be merciful, one has to be merciful.

I smiled as I stepped forward and shook Lady Xu's hand. "Big sister does feel sorry for Third Miss, I know that. Third Miss is so lucky to have two sisters like this! " I pretended to wipe my tears as I said in a regretful tone of voice, "It's a pity that I wasn't lucky and didn't have an elder sister to accompany me!"

Eldest Miss Xu was still a bit embarrassed. She pursed her lips but didn't say anything in the end.

Are you afraid that I will say something more harsh?

As long as he didn't say anything stupid like that again.

Miss Wen stepped forward and took my arm, smiling like a peony. "If little sister doesn't mind, how about letting me be a foster sister?"

Second Miss Xu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed at us, "Both of your mouths are full of sister's, and you still want to be engaged to her?" Ye Zichen helped the pale-faced Lady Xu up.

Miss Wen and I laughed. While I was leading Fifth Miss Xue and Second Miss Wen on the other side, the four of them walked forward affectionately.

Along the way, the three of us occasionally teased the Fifth Miss, but not long later, the little girl forgot what had happened just now and happily skipped along with us.

In comparison, the Xu sisters who were behind him were much more silent.

Thinking about Second Miss Xu's elegant face and her gentle temperament, I smiled and shook my head. I couldn't help but feel a sense of regret.
